Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Virtualization Manager (VMAN)

We use SolarWinds VMAN to monitor our virtual environment. It automatically generates all alarms into SolarWinds. Messages about heartbeat, tools, [and] other VM options make [it] easy to see inside SolarWinds. All new VM's automatically show up in the VMAN. Also, the hosts are monitored [through] VMAN, including any hardware alerts. There is also the possibility to execute actions from VMAN, e.q. power on/off, reboot VM, or migrate resource. [It is a] great product, easy-to-use, and kept updated with new releases.

Pros

  • Integration with [the] virtual environment
  • Monitoring of VM and Host status and alerts
  • Option to control VM and Host from VMAN

Cons

  • No known improvements
  • Better overview of [the] virtual environment
  • Better overview of VM alerts
